Brian, What advantage, (or to be totally open about it -- what disadvantage) does using your interface have when compared to simply using the tmda-cgi interface?
When it comes to managing the pending queue, tmda-cgi gives the user a GUI interface so they can look at the messages, and simply click a button to do the same thing your interface does. I'm just curious if there is something I am missing that would seem to make it a better solution than the web GUI.
